Junk Removal

Haul away furniture and junk.

01 — "Overview"

Everyone has stuff they want gone. Charge by truck volume and resell what's good.

02 — "The Crash Course"

Step 01
Get a vehicle
Pickup + trailer works. A dump trailer or box truck scales volume.
Step 02
Know your dump fees
Call local transfer stations for rates per ton and banned items (tires, mattresses, paint).
Step 03
Price by volume
1/8, 1/4, 1/2, full load. Quote from photos. Minimum $100–$150.
Step 04
Market locally
Google Business Profile, Nextdoor, Thumbtack, realtor and property manager partnerships.
Step 05
Resell and donate
Sell good furniture on Marketplace, scrap metal, donate the rest for tax receipts.
Step 06
Get insured
Liability insurance protects against property damage.
Step 07
Target recurring clients
Property managers, landlords after move-outs, estate cleanouts.

"The math"

8 jobs/month at $350 avg · ~$80 dump + fuel each = ~$2,200 profit, plus resale income.

The "how people lose" section alone saved me. Avoided exactly that mistake.
